Projet
AP056.S1.1991.PR01
Description:
This project series documents a competition entry for the Vancouver Public Library in Vancouver from 1991-1992. The office identified the project number as 69112. The competition entry, submitted in 1991, consisted of the design of Vancouver's new public library, to be situated on the block between Homer, Georgia, Hamilton and Robson Streets. The project design included a seven-floor library connected by a walkway to an adjacent twenty-floor office tower that would house Public Works Canada. Both buildings had V shaped canopies on their roofs that looked like open books when viewed at an elevation. To the front of the library at ground level was the two-storey Library Concourse; a large hall made of glass windows and stone. The Concourse connected to the Robson Street entrance, and the Library Hall entrance at the corner of Homer and Georgia Streets. The architects described this as a porch-like space to be used for gatherings, public events, exhibits and displays. Moving into the heart of the library, patrons would pass through a cylindrical rotunda which extended upwards through every floor and above the roof terrace. The library would also have 2 levels of underground parking and a basement level with a circular theatre, concession areas and staff work areas. The ground floor would primarily consist of library stacks and tables but also included would be a gift shop, children's area, daycare, staff spaces, and an outdoor play area. The remaining floors were designated for library stacks, staff work areas and services. The top floor would hold administrative offices, built in a U shape around a large terrace. The terrace, complete with gardens, could be used for library events. This building would largely be made of glass windows at its exterior, with a round glass rotunda piercing through its rectangular shape. This project was never built. Although Kuwabara, Payne, McKenna, Blumberg Architects were finalists in this competition, the contract was eventually won and built by architect Moshe Safdie. The project is recorded through drawings, presentation panels, paintings, photographs and a model dating from 1991-1992. The drawings, which are mostly originals, include sketches, plans, sections, elevations, perspectives and isometrics. There are a number of watercolours (some mounted) and drawing panels used as presentation materials which have small texts about the project's design intention. The aquisition records for the 1993 donation of these project materials identify Michael McCann as the artist of 7 paintings in this project series; however it is not clear which 7 paintings were completed by this artist. The photographs show the completed project model, which is also contained in this project series.

Projet
Maison Coloniale
AP066.S2.D19
Description:
Le dossier documente le projet de construction de la Maison Coloniale, une habitation associée à un atelier d'architecture et un hall d'exposition, situé au 4333 avenue Coloniale, à Montréal, Québec. Les matériaux utilisés pour réaliser cette construction sont le béton armé, l'acier et le bois. Le budget alloué pour ce projet était de 300 000$ et la superficie est de 340 mètres carrés. Aussi, le projet s'est mérité le Prix d'architecture du Gouverneur général du Canada. Le dossier contient des dessins, des reprographies, des photographies, des documents textuels, des maquettes et un négatif. Description du projet par l'architecte: "En concevant la Maison Coloniale, entre autres choses qui s'y trouvent inscrites, j'ai pensé à l'état des métiers. La solidarité qui nous lie est tellement ténue, les savoir-faire se déplacent, les langages s'autonomisent. Ici la structure de béton n'aura pour but structural que de survivre à sa peine : le squelette est dehors, qu'est-ce que cela veut nous dire? Partout la division, la séparation des éléments. La juxtaposition, la superposition et la répétition forment un langage dans le langage. Tout y est contact de points et de surface, d'appuis et d'ancrages. Le squelette est dehors, le corps est dedans. Qu'est-ce que cela veut nous dire? La Maison nous dit la nature de notre côtoiement. Elle nous rappelle nos liens possibles et nous apprend qu'à force de séparation, tout s'unit. Elle nous indique la distance qu'il nous reste à franchir pour se toucher et s'émouvoir. Elle est comme vous et moi, un peu résistante et prête à tout donner. Elle nous dit la convivialité et nous rappelle nos moyens d'humains. Elle nous rappelle que c'est nous qui l'avons faite!"
